Why Gen Z isn't fun anymore
The generations are always fighting about something. But, right now it feels like almost everyone is in agreement — Gen Z is boooooring. Advertisement In the eyes of millennials and Gen X-ers, Gen Z is the generation that single-handedly killed live music, drinking culture and socializing in general. And, while all of that might be true to a degree — speaking as a Gen Z-er myself — there's a reason for it that you might not be considering, and one which might hopefully have you feeling a little more sympathetic. 4 In the eyes of millennials and Gen X-ers, Gen Z is single-handedly ruining live music, drinking culture and socializing. Jacob Lund – One video can change everything Picture this: you're hanging out with your best friends at a nightclub. Advertisement Chances are, you've downed a fair few drinks at that point — there's no shame in that — and you're dancing in a way that's not necessarily trophy worthy. But who cares? You're having fun! And, prior to about a decade ago, that's all it would have been. A night of fun with your friends, with some questionable dancing that wouldn't live on beyond your memories. But, that's not the case anymore. Advertisement Today, if you or your friends didn't post it yourselves, chances are you could end up caught in the background of someone else's video. They post it on TikTok, it goes viral, and the rest is history. Congratulations, you're now that girl from TikTok with the embarrassing dance moves. Caught red handed While that may not sound too scary to you, and you might have the urge to encourage Gen Z to roll with it and be 'less dramatic', the reality is that for a lot of people, this is scary. 4 Fear of being captured on video is keeping people from dancing and having fun outside. Jose Calsina – Advertisement No one wants to go to work or school knowing that they've been made a fool of online without their consent. And, usually, there's nothing you can do about it once it's out there. I've felt that fear myself too many times, especially at concerts where it's become a trend to film yourself rather than the artist. I'm certain I'm not doing anything worthy of being bullied by millions of people online — though of course there's never a reasonable excuse. 4 Clubs and concert venues are prohibiting the use of phones or providing methods to prevent attendees from using their cameras. Solarisys – But, anything is enough for the internet to start picking you apart, whether it be a hair out of place or a dull face which has people accusing you of not enjoying yourself, whether you are or not. Let Gen Z live! As we grow increasingly connected to our phones, to the point where it feels strange to put them down, many clubs and concert venues have begun prohibiting the use of phones, or providing bags or stickers to prevent attendees from using their cameras. 4 Artists are using Yondr bags for devices at their shows to encourage audience engagement. silverkblack – Bruno Mars, The Lumineers and Alicia Keys have all recently used Yondr bags at their shows to encourage audience engagement. Advertisement And, I have to say, aside from not being able to film your favorite songs, it's not a bad idea. The internet is a powerful thing, and especially on TikTok, literally anyone can be an influencer or go viral based on one good video — even at the expense of someone else. So, can you really blame people for being a little nervous to be themselves? We all want things to go back to the way they were before phones sometimes, but when that's not possible, I think we need to cut Gen Z some slack.

Chad Michael Murray on sharing 'Freakier Friday' with his kids, acting and more
Chad Michael Murray is stepping back into Jake's world in " Freakier Friday." The actor, who played Lindsay Lohan's love interest in the 2003 hit film, "Freaky Friday," returns in the sequel as the heartthrob many remember and love. At the "Freakier Friday" premiere in Hollywood on Tuesday, Murray shared his excitement for the film and called it "incredible." "It's so good," he said. "It might even be better than the first one. It's that good." While he couldn't give much away about what Jake has been up to, Murray's character appears in the trailer on his motorcycle and with Lohan's character, Anna Coleman, in a record shop. Murray teased, "For Jake in particular, I think we're going to be excited to see what he's been pining over for the past 22 years." The actor appeared in many popular teen films and shows of the early 2000s. Following "Freaky Friday," he starred alongside Hilary Duff in the 2004 film "A Cinderella Story," as her love interest, Austin Ames. Murray also played Lucas Scott in " One Tree Hill" from 2003 to 2012, and appeared in "Gilmore Girls," "Dawson's Creek" and more. When asked about what he remembers most about his early days as an actor, Murray said he feels "unbelievable gratitude." "You're so excited, you can't keep yourself composed," he recalled. "You think you made it even though you know you didn't. The fear of failure because you're worried you're gonna go out there and do it wrong, and then how long will it take before they figure out that you can't really do it." He continued, "There's so many feelings, but at the end of the day, I always remember, I always try to remind myself why I became an actor. " "I became an actor because I wanted to go make film and television that would entertain people," he said. "I wanted to get people that moment to step away from whatever was going on in their life and give them that departure." He added, "So I remember that and I smile and I remember my dad's words. My dad always just said, 'Just have fun with it, whatever you're doing, just have fun.'" Murray celebrated the "Freakier Friday" premiere with his family. The actor was all smiles as he shared his carpet moment with his wife, Sarah Roemer, and their son and daughter, who they welcomed in 2015 and 2017, respectively. Absent was their youngest daughter, who they welcomed in 2023. He said that his oldest daughter got a sneak peek of "Freakier Friday" and that she "loves this film." "For the first time ever, we brought them kind of out," he said about his kids' first red carpet moment. "They really wanted to go. They really wanted to be a part of it. I think that this is the perfect place for them to be able to come and witness the lightness and the beauty that can be this industry if you bring light, joy and your goal is to bring smiles and happiness." "That's what this movie's about," he added. Along with Murray and Lohan, the film stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Manny Jacinto, Julia Butters and Sophia Hammons. The upcoming film, directed by Nisha Ganatra, features Lohan and Curtis switching bodies again. This time, Anna now has a daughter of her own, along with a soon-to-be stepdaughter. "Freakier Friday" arrives in theaters on Aug. 8, 2025.
